FIRST LOOK: Intel's Braswell NUC

According to this PDF file, Intel's low-powered Next Unit of Computing will feature four USB 3.0 ports (one charging capable), a TOSLINK optical digital audio output, and a SDXC card slot on the side. According to the Canadian site Cendirect, the NUC5CPYH packs a Celeron N3050, while the NUC5PPYH rocks a Pentium N3700 (US prices under $140 and $180). Both are geared for a June 8th release.

Despite their very low 6W TDP, it looks like no change has been made in the cooling department, and we're positive they feature a fan. Definitely a missed opportunity, Brian.
